 SecuriCode
Limited has announced the availability of a ‘new generation’
of low cost RFID-based identity management solutions. These deliver
automatic protection by associating an individual’s unique
global ID with devices such as laptops, PCs, mobile phones or any
other device containing a power source.
Assigned users are identified by long-life, lightweight encrypted
tags, which do not have to be exposed or waved in front of readers.
These are recognised by the embedded SecuriCode solution without
requiring an external reader. This automatically protects devices
and data from misuse or theft, as they are rendered inoperable when
assigned users are not in range. Systems inadvertently left unattended
or lost are protected both from a system and sensitive data perspective.
SecuriCode can also play a significant role in reducing power consumption
of systems and building utilities by allowing the automatic shutdown
of power supplies and utility supplies when assigned personnel have
vacated areas or systems for predetermined periods of time.
SecuriCode solutions can also be used by knowledge workers and supervisors
to automatically login to their workstations when they approach
their desks. This can significantly reduce the time required to
log into multiple systems at the beginning of shifts and after breaks.
They can also automatically power up and unlock specified devices
when authorised users approach.
SecuriCode is compatible with building security systems enabling
automatic activation and deactivation by user presence. SecuriCode
solutions are also available as external reader nodes that can be
used for personnel or equipment location and to control access to
secure areas.
